The Downtown Racine Corporation is excited to announce the return of The HayMarket, Racine’s only night market, taking place in Monument Square on June 11 & 25, July 9 & 23, and August 6 & 20 from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
More than just a market, The HayMarket is designed as a summer experience — blending local shopping, live music, food trucks, craft beverages, and community gathering into one vibrant downtown destination.
Visitors can browse dozens of local vendors featuring handcrafted goods, specialty foods, fresh produce, baked treats, artisan products, and unique gifts while enjoying live acoustic music, a beer garden, and the energetic atmosphere of Downtown Racine.
Each market will feature live acoustic performances from local musicians:
• June 11 – Kyle Young
• June 25 – Michelle Zeien
• July 9 – Terry James
• July 23 – Rogers Randle
• August 6 – Mark Paffrath
• August 20 – Ivy Ford
Guests can grab dinner from local restaurants or food vendors, enjoy a beverage in the beer garden, shop at local artisan booths, and experience the welcoming atmosphere that has made Downtown Racine one of Wisconsin’s most vibrant gathering places.
Whether you’re looking for a unique date night, an after-work outing, a family-friendly activity, or simply an excuse to enjoy a beautiful summer evening downtown, The HayMarket offers something for everyone.
